So I have Splunk Community deployed on a micro instance of CentOS 7 on google cloud platform.

  • GDP Firewall has 8000 open to all instances from everywhere.
  • CentOS machine has 8000 TCP and UDP open on firewall-cmd.
  • Splunk is running with a non-root user
  • Opened connections from http and https
  • Tried changing the port to 7000 and making the other changes and it is still not available.
  • Tried using multiple browsers will no effect.
  • Confirmed that splunk is running and listening on port 8000

Working with GCP helpdesk as well since the DNS entry isn't working either so I am using the external IP directly. Its been about 24 hours so any latency between networking updates should have happened by now.

i too could not access my splunk wer from home browser, but my problem was precisely in GCP firewall rules: be careful with you filters (labes, masks, etc.) - there is not difficulty there, actually. have a nice day.
